The short version
Need a new sectional door at a unit in Leicestershire? We fit insulated panel doors that lift clear of the opening and run under the roof, with vision panels, wicket doors and electric operation to suit busy sites around the East Midlands.

Options that matter on site
- Vision panels. Add a row of vision panels or full-vision aluminium sections for daylight and a clear view of vehicles outside.
- Insulated panels. 40 mm PU-insulated steel panels as standard, with thicker thermal panels where heat loss matters.
- Paperwork. Declaration of Performance, user instructions and commissioning records handed over on completion.
- Electric drives. Motorised operation with the controls you need, from a simple push-button station to induction loops and radar.
- Wicket doors. A pass door built into the panels saves opening the whole door for pedestrians; low-threshold options reduce trips.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing a draughty single-skin roller shutter with an insulated sectional door and a low-threshold wicket door.
- Installing a sectional door on low-headroom tracks in a steel-framed unit where the roof haunch sits close above the opening.
- Adding induction loops and an inverter drive so forklifts can open a busy internal sectional door without stopping.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Leicestershire are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
How the work is organised
For busy sites in the East Midlands the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
